South Slope Fiber

Our current ISP provides excellent customer service, however the pricing has gotten out of control in respect to bundling services such as internet, phone, cable. Therefore, we have dropped all services except internet. We are satisfied with the speed of internet which is fiber to the house.

Mediacom is the most used service in my area, so it seems like there is not really a choice. It provides fast service, but slows when multiple gaming consoles are used at the same time. It was very pricey. but customer service was able to lower our bill. They only lowered our price after threatening to go to one of the smaller providers. They were helpful though and offered to deliver a second Ero, hotspot, for free.

My internet provider is a local provider. To my knowledge, they do not provide internet services elsewhere. My apartment has fiber connected internet. I feel that the internet speed is good and I haven't had any speed issues. The person who connected my internet was also very knowledgeable. He was able to help me find a good router. They has also been very helpful when any issues arise. I like that they are local. I prefer supporting local businesses, and I've had much better luck with them than previous internet providers.
